This lesson covers various tasks involved in creating and
managing event calendars.
An event calendar is an administrative calendar account that
exists to inform your user base about upcoming events that may be of interest
to them such as sports matches, concerts, and so on. Event calendars are similar
to user accounts, but represent schedules other events that may be of interest
to your user base. The administrative controls and functionality of resource
management are also similar to those of user management.
An event calendar can be accessed by signing in with the account
password using one of the Oracle Calendar Desktop clients. Users have read-only
access to the events created in event calendars. However, using the Oracle Calendar
Web client, users may copy events and appointments from the event calendar into
their own calendars. Administrators or users who have been given special administrative
rights may create event calendars.
